Chapter 3: Words as a Source of Misunderstanding (1)
"Xia Youran......" After Bai Xiao finished the taekwondo class in the morning, he shouted at Xia Youran as soon as he entered the door. The cram school www.biquge.info Pen Fun Pavilion is very close, and they are all in the community, so it doesn't take too much time to walk. Bai Xiao was stunned and didn't want Xia to send it leisurely, and insisted on walking over by himself, saying that he wanted to exercise his independent ability. Since the security of the community is good, Xia Youran did not stop it.
"Ah, you're back......" Xia Youran didn't come out of the study, but just shouted outside the door.
Bai Xiao was covered with the smell of sweat all over his body, so he went to the room to get a change of clothes and walked straight into the bathroom. The house they live in now is not the villa they lived in with Bai Shaoyuan before. Rather, in order to facilitate the move to the city, Bai Ze's house with them. There are more rooms, one room for each of them, and the remaining room is almost Lin Chenhao's dedicated bedroom. The cabinet inside also contained several sets of his clothes, as well as some of his personal belongings. But every time he came, Bai Xiao would always pester him to sleep with him. In addition, Lin Chenhao is also overly spoiled by Bai Xiao, so his overly demanding requirements will basically be met one by one.
Half an hour later, Bai Xiaohe came out in a human, he followed Lin Chenhao's usual appearance, hung a towel around his neck, and occasionally picked it up and wiped it. Before entering his room, he still took a detour to Xia Xia's leisurely study.
"Haven't you finished drawing yet?" Of course, he never cared about the progress of Xia Youran's painting, he just felt that if he didn't go out now, he might not be able to make it to the airport.
"Well, it's almost there, it's just a little bit away." Xia Youran didn't even raise her head, she didn't want to be distracted by this, she was in a very good state today, and it would take at least half an hour to finish the last draft.
"Oh......" Bai Xiao had probably figured out Xia Youran's habits. After all, that's her job, and he's knowledgeable as her tigress-like editor. It's better not to let her 'come to visit' or she'll die a terrible death."
While waiting for Xia Youran, Bai Xiao was not idle, and went into his room to change several sets of clothes, I don't know why, maybe it was because Bai Ze and Lin Chenhao were coming back today, so they became very excited. He ended up opting for a white short-sleeved shirt with a matching tie and blue plaid shorts. After everything was done, he walked out of the room.
When he entered the study, he just stopped in front of Xia Youran, and he didn't ask Xia Youran how he was wearing this suit. It's just that he has been standing very close, as if he is expecting Xia Youran to praise him.
Seeing that Bai Xiao had been standing so close, Xia Youran probably understood what he meant. She accepted the manuscript in her hand and carefully looked at Bai Xiao's dress, "What happened to us today, why are you wearing so handsome?" ”
"No, that's how I usually wear it." Bai Xiao glanced at Xia Youran's movements, "All drawn?" ”
"Well, after the scan, everything was sent, and now it should be just right to go out to the airport, it's all in my plan." Xia Youran stood up, stretched his waist, threw the mobile phone key wallet on the table into his bag, and pulled Bai Xiao to go out.
"Wait, why don't you change your clothes and go out again?" Bai Xiao was very dissatisfied with Xia Youran's tasteless dress. When she started working full-time as a cartoonist, she seemed to dress more and more casually, let alone apply some makeup.
"I'm in loungewear! It's just to pick up Bai Ze and them, and they don't need to dress up. Xia leisurely looked at his dress, white short sleeves with a choba pattern, matching shorts, comfortable to wear will not be said to be like pajamas, flat sandals and a linen bag bought casually on the side of the road that is usually carried on his back, it seems that there is nothing wrong with it.
"Hair ......" Bai Xiao wanted to remind something, but was interrupted by Xia Youran.
"It's okay, it's okay, everyone doesn't know each other anyway, it doesn't matter."
"Then aren't you afraid that your brother will hate you when he sees you so sloppy?" Bai Xiao glanced at it several times from top to bottom and from bottom to top, looking disgusted.
"It's okay, it's okay, as long as you don't hate me...... Besides, it's not too late now, so let's hurry out. Xia leisurely pushed Bai Xiao out.
"I don't hate you, I just dislike you."
"Ah, my glass heart." Xia Youran pretended to be hurt. Bai Xiao saw her stupid appearance and "giggled" beside her.
on the plane.
Lin Chenhao ripped off his blindfold and looked at Bai Ze who had been playing with a small red box in his hand. frowned, "Are you sincere?" ”
"Yes." The other party didn't explain much, but he opened the box, looked at it, closed the box, and then put the box in his pants pocket.
"I can't believe that there will be such a day!" Lin Chenhao said abruptly. Their previous balance was like a triangle, no matter which side it was, it has never changed, so it has always been balanced and stable, but Bai Ze's current actions seem to be a clear sign: The solid relationship will be broken!
"yes, I didn't think of it at first, but ......," he pursed his lips and smiled, "Maybe it's fate, if I hadn't picked her up that day, I wouldn't have liked her." ”
"......" Lin Chenhao glared at Bai Ze who was sitting beside him, "Then why didn't you like me in the first place!" ”
"You're a man!" Bai Ze glared at him in turn.
"Yes, yes, my Young Master Bai!" Lin Chenhao didn't continue to stare at Bai Ze, and took the opportunity to put on the blindfold again, "Call me when you arrive, I'll sleep first!" ”
"Well, there's still an hour, I'll call you when it's time." Bai Ze was more excited, so he didn't sleep much, so he picked up the magazine in his hand and flipped through it.
Airport.
Due to the lack of a taxi for a long time and the traffic jam on the road, the two of them had already missed the arrival time of the plane when they arrived at the airport. Bai Xiao pulled Xia Youran to the pick-up place, and asked Xia Youran as he ran: "Is Brother Ze's phone through?" ”
"Not yet...... On a call. Xia Youran's mobile phone in her ear has been busy, there are a lot of people at the airport, and she has been pulled by Bai Xiao, and she is about to be stunned.
"Do you think he'll go home first if he can't wait?" There was no Bai Ze or Lin Chenhao nearby, and Bai Xiao couldn't help but ask a little uneasily.
"Before he saw Xiao, how could he go back first?" Xia leisurely replied with a smile. (But I thought to myself: If I dare to go back first, I must break his leg first!) )
Bai Xiao is small, even in a crowded place, he can shuttle freely, but due to Xia Youran's long-term inactivity, his body coordination is not as good as before, and he will inevitably rub against people. So, all the way over, she kept saying 'I'm sorry' and 'I'm sorry'......
Bai Xiao seemed to see Bai Ze, who was searching for him in the crowd not far away, so he let go of Xia Youran's hand and ran forward.
"Hey, Xiao, don't run so fast!" Xia Youran's gaze was completely on Bai Xiao's body, and he didn't pay attention to the people around him at all. At this time, the phone began to vibrate, and her intuition told her that it should be a call from Bai Ze. Unable to see the road and in a hurry to move forward, she plunged headlong into the arms of a uniformed man and knocked him to the ground, tripped herself and fell into the mud.
"Nothing, right?" The man asked softly.
"Oh, no, it's nothing......" Xia Youran rubbed his head left and right, he was completely stunned just now, but he vaguely felt that the man's gaze seemed to stay on his left hand.
The man stood up silently and stretched out his hand to Xia Youran, who was still sitting on the ground, for some reason, Xia Youran shivered, but he didn't know what was wrong.
"I can't imagine that after so many years, you still look so sloppy!" The cold words came from the top of his head, and the tone of his voice was the same as that of someone.
"Probably not...... ......" Xia Youran raised his head slightly, although after so many years, the person in front of him was completely different from the young man he knew many years ago, but if he identified it carefully, he could still see it.
However, the man's words pierced her heart like a sharp knife. The words wouldn't have hurt her, but it depended on who said it. I can't imagine that after so many years, I still care so much. Today's clothes are indeed more casual, and the hair is a little messy, and the child is because of the lack of words, so he said 'sloppy', so what does this man want to explain? Using the word 'sloppy', even if it's a stranger, it's a bit too much.
"This gentleman ......" Xia smiled reluctantly, and stood up on his own with his hands on the ground, "What clothes I wear and what I do should have nothing to do with you, right?" ”
"It's not about me, but it's polluting my eyes, Xia Youran." The last three words, he said very seriously, perhaps, he was very angry at Xia Youran for not knowing himself at all. Did he deliberately say the words 'Xia Youran' to show that he knew this person? Or is there some other purpose?
"You ......" Xia Youran was about to argue with this person when Bai Xiao saw Xia Youran fall and immediately turned back.
"What's wrong? Is it an uncle you know? Bai Xiao pretended to be obedient and said, he is always like this in front of outsiders, who knows, he is a natural little devil.
"What, there's a little ghost with you......" The man's sarcastic tone was even more excessive. He stared carefully at the handsome little boy in front of him, dressed meticulously. His expression changed instantly, and after staring at the kid for a long time, he stared at Xia Youran's face from time to time, and then asked in a cold tone, "Your son?" ”
Of course, Xia Youran did not respond to him positively, and directly ignored his problem.
"I can't imagine that you got married so early, and even your son is so old, so you must not be a good person to marry......" is a more excessive sour tone.
"Yes, I didn't marry well, and I didn't have a good life, are you happy?" Xia Youran's eyes began to turn red, and after saying that, he took Bai Xiao's hand. She didn't want to have too much to do with the person in front of her, and wanted to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.
He saw all this in his eyes and wanted to reach out, but in the end he didn't reach out.
Bai Xiao had already felt the extraordinary aura between the two of them.
"Mom, look, dad is over there......" Bai Xiao glared at the prickly man and walked towards the crowd with Xia leisurely. He followed the direction he had just pointed, and saw a dignified man with a suitcase, which was inferior to himself. What are you afraid of? It's obviously a reunion after many years, and I can't even say "long time no see". For the kindness that others can do, why is she always so snarky in front of her? It's just that when he saw that the person had become another person's possession, he was jealous. He kept staring at the man's back and never left.
The last time they met, they had a big fight, and she never came to school again. Later I heard that she had changed schools because her mother had died and she had become an orphan. But he couldn't do anything for her, and rubbed salt in her wounds when she needed help the most. He knew that she was not doing well, and he hoped that she would be doing well, but he was always unable to express what he had to say correctly. Now he has enough ability to help her, as long as she says a word, he will help with anything.
Looking at the woman, and the child beside her, as she surrounded the man, he clenched his fists. Sometimes he even wanted to rush forward, but the only sanity he had left told him he couldn't.
"What's wrong? What is our NTU captain looking at? A baby-faced man patted Nanshan on the shoulder from behind.
"Nothing!" He replied through gritted teeth.
